Walmart+ Is Now Half-Priced for Families on Government Assistance

Families and individuals who receive government assistance, such as SNAP or Medicaid, are now eligible for the Walmart+ Assist <https://goto.walmart.com/c/156932/566719/9383?subId1=rg&subId2=159021&sharedid=&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fplus%2Fassist&subid3=xid:%7bxid%7d&___trxnet=ir>  program. The idea is pretty simple; you get all of the Walmart+ benefits at half the usual price. That means free shipping, free grocery deliveries, access to Paramount+, and more for $6.47 a month or $49 a year.

Walmart+ debuted a few years ago as an Amazon Prime competitor. It normally costs $12.95 a month or $98 a year, and it includes several unique benefits.

Here’s a quick rundown of Walmart+:

*	Free shipping from Walmart.com
*	Free grocery delivery on orders of $35 or more
*	Free Paramount+ membership
*	Ad-free streaming on some Pluto TV content
*	Walmart will pick up returns from your home
*	Mobile scan-and-go at Walmart stores
*	Early access to Black Friday prices
*	Save 10¢ per gallon at Exxon, Mobil, and Murphy stations
*	A rotating selection of limited-time offers

With Walmart+ Assist, you get all of these benefits at half the usual price. All you need to do is visit the Walmart+ Assist page <https://goto.walmart.com/c/156932/566719/9383?subId1=rg&subId2=159021&sharedid=&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fplus%2Fassist&subid3=xid:%7bxid%7d&___trxnet=ir> , where your eligibility will be verified through SheerID. (Note that you’ll also get a monthlong trial, so long as you’re a new member.)

Qualifying government assistance programs include SNAP, WIC, Medicaid, SSI, TANF, TTANF, NSLP, and LIHEAP. If you’re on one of these programs, Walmart+ Assist may be worth your consideration. It’s certainly a lot cheaper than Prime.

Obviously, a Walmart+ Assist program may seem like a bit of a luxury. But it can save you a ton of time and money. This is especially true for families or individuals who do not own a car (or who cannot drive)—grocery deliveries usually cost a ton of money, but you get free grocery deliveries for just a few bucks a month with this program.

Again, you can sign up for Walmart+ Assist at the Walmart website <https://goto.walmart.com/c/156932/566719/9383?subId1=rg&subId2=159021&sharedid=&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fplus%2Fassist&subid3=xid:%7bxid%7d&___trxnet=ir> . If possible, I suggest paying annually, as $49 a year works out to just $4.08 a month. Note that if you qualify for Walmart+ Assist, you may also qualify for the FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program <https://www.fcc.gov/acp> , which provides home internet and computers at a discounted rate.
